About This Item
I'm guessing if you are looking at this book you have at least read Darkness at Noon (if you haven't, do...wish I had a copy to sell to you). This is a serviceable biography of a man who was many different things throughout his life, but will forever be remembered as someone who saw through the fallacies of Soviet Communism and was determined to let the World know. This is a good copy, with some interesting clippings inside, both reviews of the book, and obituaries for Koestler and his wife.
xvii, 397 pages. Bibliography, notes, index. Book in good condition, tight binding. Dust jacket in very good condition with slight signs of wear. Owner's name in biro on title page. A copy that has been read, but looked after. Comes with a collection of clippings from NYT, The Age, The Times, Herald-Tribune etc. of reviews and other information about Koestler. Photographs show actual book for sale.
